...locos el rabbirto...

...our very first mexican wrestler bunny is born, from grey and red felt with beautiful
hand embroidered stitching, not to mention his adorable wrestling boots, he's a perfect
mixture of crazy and cute, who wants to play with him?...

...no name bunny...

...our little no name bunny is nearly ready for it's first contributor, s/he is crocheted
from yummy chocolate brown and cream wool, and s/he'll have jesse's fabric for arms
and ears and legs, but s/he still needs a face and some clothes/accessories,
any takers (for the children)...

...laughed out loud...

...check out this youtube link, sums up so nicely the making a difference theme...

...freddie is born...

...so who said you need to know anything about sewing or own a sewing machine to
make a bunny, armed with fabric, so kindly donated by leila, i created freddie over the
weekend. i followed NO pattern, just improvised! freddie's ready, so, the question is...
who wants freddie first???...

...and it begins...

...a very big THANK YOU to jesse, for not only donating fabric, but especially
printing these pieces just for us, keep 'em coming ladies, we loooove it...

...and the exquisite bunny corpse...

 

...is born! 

inspired by the surrealist movement's 'exquisite corpse' we've decided that with our small 

hands, we will make a big difference by collectively designing and making 6 designer 

bunny toys. we'll put together various templates of basic bunnies and then send them 

through the group, everyone who wants to play can then add a personal little touch 

to the bunnies making use of their particular skills/talents. once they're finished 

we'll sell them and use the money to support a baby/kid related charity, by buying them

whatever is on their wishlist.

so if this inspires you, then come and play with us...

...with these small hands...

 
...we can make a big difference, this is our theme for our third chapter. the aim
is to use our collective creative skills to make a difference in the lives of others.
we are planning something really exciting which you can all be involved in,
by contributing with your unique creative skills.
all will be revealed soon soon...

...and the mystery gift goes to...

...roule was the lucky lucky winner of the beeeaudiful hand illustrated ceramic tile,
so generously designed, made and donated by the uber talented hilda.
now who doesn't just love a freebie, and we're thrilled that hilda offered
to share the love with all of us, we're green with envy,
but we're sure that there'll be another freebie donated for our next meeting (hint hint)...

...the bluebird of happiness...

...our dear tessa took it upon herself to do our 2nd badge, the theme was
'things that make you smile' and she interpreted that to the bluebird of happiness,
she then oh so lovingly cut each individual bird out of copper and did some
copper magic to draw out the natural blue, finished off with a beautiful ribbon,
we love it, we love it, we love it!...

...and we all smile together...

...so our 2nd date was absolutely amazing, thanks everyone for coming, it's the people
that make our little 'gang' so much fun. loved that everyone was relaxed, enjoying the
great food, and chatting away like a bunch of old school friends. thanks again for the
beeeeaudiful badge tessa, and the stunning gift hilda, we're all green with envy that roule
was the lucky one...
